Localized Curriculum
Unlike learning programs by large publishers, THINKING PRO has been designed to create purposeful learning experiences that connect students to their local communities. Local issues and local news media are used as a motivational hook for students to ensure deep learning and become relevant to their personal lives beyond the classroom.
Reliable Teaching Process
Unbiased, nonpartisan teaching approach to teach critical thinking and reading comprehension using local issues and local media as a motivational hook for students.
Interactive Learning Videos
Thinking Pro’s interactive explainer videos model the use of specific cognitive skills, highlight why they matter, and provide practicing activities. Watched individually, the videos adapt automatically to students' ability levels and learning pace. Gamification is used to engage students at a deeper level and foster their proficiency in critical thinking and reading comprehension.
